As a proud eUk citizen I David Norman asked some questions to Our Present eUK President Mr. BigAnt to say something to our readers and here we published this exclusive interview first time over “the eLife Journal”. So here it is : The Open Letter from eUK President to his eCitizen.

Hi David, Thank you for inviting me to your new paper 🙂. Having another keen journalist will only benefit our readers needs more.
Present eUK political situation as per CP's view ? The eUK is changing all the time, even more so in the recent months. We have seen change of top of the political scene with UKPP passing TUP. Not to mention we have also seen an famous old party drop from the top 5 (UKRP). I would expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future as players choose what political goals they wish to achieve for the eUK.

What was the feeling when you won CP election for the first time in your eRep life? Well, this is my 2nd term actually 😛. But it always feels good when you have put together a solid manifesto and get support from the population. I admit my first term wasn't the best, but also it was never the worse. So having this chance to come back and actually show what I can achieve has been a blessing.

How has this term gone? Excellent, I have really enjoyed it so far and not allowed certain people to get to me this time around. Also pushing change and having no fear is a great attribute I have the support I needed this time around. We have had more War which I promised when running for CP and I'm delighted at how things are going. So far the "Crazy" plan is coming together nicely. As for FA,HA departments we have been very active, granted I have moved and changed the cabinet to satisfy my demands but expect to see a lot more in the coming days and weeks.

How is the Peace summit proceeding? Currently I have an in game mail circulating between Party Presidents and MU commanders to have a "Brainstorming" before the big event. Things are moving nicely and I want to push this peace summit before Christmas if possible. See it a fresh start if you like for everyone, clean the slate.

Anything else? We have hit some problems with the radio, so please be patient this is the first time a live streaming radio has been attempted. We are launching the "New player week" shortly so you will see a huge increase in the MoHA media presence as we try to support our new players. NHS - The NHS MU has now been closed and new players seem to merging into established MU's nicely. I must stress again the NHS continues in a background function. So if you apply you will still receive food, you don't need to join the old MU.

Closing Statement: Things are going really well, the MoLA is working well and we have installed Sven to see out the forums to accommodate everyone. We have plenty of battles so enjoy the TP/BH medals etc and Keep fighting hard!

eLife Journal Team - planning to interview some eUk citizen, if you are interested then you can be the "Voice of eNation" and entire eUk will read your views. Do you have something to tell to Government? do you need something to see in change? do you believe our ruling by good and captive e-Leaders? Are they doing well for e-UK over here? do you think present tax and vat is okey? do national supply helping well and doing feeds for everyone nicely? Tell us, open your mind and i will place this to lime-light at this section.
Write your Voice in between 200 words with addressing a subject “Voice of eNation” and send it back to me via game message in between 12 Jan 2013. if all okey then you will be the "Voice of eNation" in the up-comming 2nd edition of the eLife Journal.
Thank you so much at advance.

Here comes the Face of the edition, in this section, we will introduce some vital eUK personalities round the year one after one. and we meet this super guy to interview for our very first "Face of the Edition" and here it is

Hi Ayame Crocodile, please Tell us something about your eRep Life (like how much you enjoy this game, why you choose this username, what is your aim in eLife here, what do you believe and why do you believe that in your elife etc)
First I’d like to say Hello again David 🙂 And to your readers of course!
Well as this could be quite a big questions I’ll start with the simple stuff. My Username came from seeing an old childhood quilt cover with animals that said “I am a ” and well for some reason I Am A Crocodile stuck in my head and I just tweaked it a little. As for my aim in this eLife it’s hard to really define it in it’s entirety but I won’t try to dance around the subject and I’ll dive right into what I think are the 3 main bullet point reasons that most people play eRepublik; 1. For some fun, 2. To socialise in a different way, 3. To feel some kind of ability to make change. It is a bit depressing at times to say those points but it’s incredibly true, Most come to eRepublik out of boredom but they stay because they find connections that perhaps they are missing in real life. A chance to have a noticeable affect on the world around them that might be missing outside of the game. My beliefs are equally simple and I’ve said them over and over in various ways, which you can see in my articles/manifestos. And they are: Transparency, Accountability and Fairness. My Presidential Candidate manifesto a few months back wasn’t just a ‘Political Campaign’ these really are my strongly held personal beliefs. Which I believe in not just in this eLife but in Real Life too.
Without Transparency you get Corruption, Without Accountability you get Abuses of Power and without Fairness you get frustration, inactivity and people begin to wonder what’s the point of playing?

You as an ePolitician, if you be the Country President for next full term, then what thing / things you gonna change / reform and tell us why people will give their valuable vote to you?
Just to keep everyone from fear, I won’t be running for CP anytime soon, so you can stop your panic attacks xD Not wanting to give all my ideas away, but if I were to be Country President next term then I’d like to create a more responsive government. This would involve weekly opinion polls and referendums on important issues that affect the whole nation along with the publication of National Resources such as the Census and other collected spreadsheets. To be quite honest this isn’t anywhere near a manifesto and I would hope that people read into Candidates manifesto’s carefully as well as their previous articles and character before making a decision. So by no means do I expect anyone to think I’ve said enough to warrant voting for me. But I’d at least like to think that I’m a generally nice guy and that people would give myself a chance by reading my manifesto, Just as they should any other person who is willing to put themselves in the spotlight like that.

Do you believe in War in real life? Are you a strong determined well trained soldier? How do you relate eWar in eRep ?
Well I’m actually pretty opposed to war in real life. Except for the very rare circumstance or as a means of defence I dislike the idea of warfare, Especially in it’s modern day form. It’s sad to see so many conflicts happening across our world with little or no meaningful justification for them in my eyes. As for being a determined and well trained soldier I’m definitely a determined person but I’m just a soldier for my own beliefs, friends and family. Beyond that I don’t fight for anyone that I don’t love.
As for war in eRep, it’s a game and thankfully people don’t die and homes aren’t destroyed. It’d be a much nicer world if we could resolve our international conflicts as bloodlessly as we do here... Then again though, The world map would be even more of a terrible mess 😛

One Best Quote of your choice- which you gonna love to share with Us
"Ten people who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent." -Napoleon Bonaparte

Any Suggestion, opinion for our readers, any message ?
Remember this is just a game, Stay true to yourself and spend as much time trying to be a friend to people as you do trying to achieve whatever goal you came to achieve, Because in the end you’ll realise that the friends you make are worth far more than that short lived recognition, medal or title.
And thank you for Interviewing me David, this is my first ever!
It’s been great to chat to you over the last few days and I want to wish you all the best success in whatever you aim for in the future 😁

An elderly couple goes to Burger King, where they carefully split a burger and fries. A trucker takes pity on them and offers to buy the wife her own meal.
''It's all right,'' says the husband. ''We share everything.''
A few minutes later, the trucker notices that the wife hasn't taken a bite. ''I really wouldn't mind buying your wife her own meal,'' he insists.
''She'll eat,'' the husband assures him. ''We share everything.''
Unconvinced, the trucker implores the wife, ''Why aren't you eating?''
The wife snaps, ''Because I'm waiting for the teeth! Currently he using that''
